A. No, it's best to stay away from these because you will need a much larger unit cell. This is because if you replace say 1% of Si with P, you will need 100 unit cells (99 with Si and 1 with P) to define the basic unit. Refer to the question above. | A.

+ | Q. Can I study graphene? | ||
+ | |||
+ | A. No. The 2-d nature of graphene requires special symmetry that is too complex for a beginning project. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Q. Can I study conductivity as a function of temperature? | ||
+ | |||
+ | A. No. All calculations are inherently T=0 calculations. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Q. Can I study magnetic properties? | ||
+ | |||
+ | A. There is an option to include spin polarization. | ||
